History

Amazing Facts was founded in 1965 by Joe Crews in Baltimore, Maryland.[4][5] Inspired by the success of The Rest Of The Story, hosted by Paul Harvey, Joe Crews' original objective for Amazing Facts was to reach out to both Christian and non-Christian listeners via daily 15-minute programs by opening with a scientific or historic fact, and how it applies to the overall Biblical messages.[2] Later, the program offered accompanying home Bible study courses, as well as books written by Crews himself. In 1987, Amazing Facts initiated a television ministry that has expanded to four programs as well as periodic evangelism series.

Shortly before his death in 1994, Crews invited Doug Batchelor to assume the position of president, which he holds to this day. Today, the Amazing Facts radio program "Bible Answers Live" broadcasts mainly out of Granite Bay, California each Sunday evening to about 100 national stations.[6] At the end of 2018, Amazing Facts became an independent ministry and changed its name to Amazing Facts International.[7]

AFCOE

Amazing Facts operates the Amazing Facts Center of Evangelism (AFCOE). "AFCOE trains and equips clergy and lay people in all aspects of evangelistic ministry."[11] Both a four-month "Complete" course[12] and a 4-day "AFCOE To Go"[13] courses are offered from their campus in Rocklin, CA and by request around the world.[11]

Bible school

Amazing Facts offers a free Bible school with online study guides,[14] ranging from real topics to health topics.

Some themes of the studies are "A Love that Transforms", "God Drew the Plans", "God's Free Health Plan", "Purity & Power!", and "Are the Dead Really Dead?".[15]

Mergers

In April 2007 it was announced that Amazing Facts and 3ABN would be merging [16][17][18] However, in August 2007, after several months of review, Amazing Facts announced they will not merge with 3ABN due to issues with structural dynamics.[19]

On April 6, 2008 Amazing Facts announced a joint venture with Weimar Institute whereby the operations of Weimar Institute will be administered by Amazing Facts and both organizations would have a single board of directors.[20] Weimar was renamed Weimar Center of Health and Education and Neil Nedley was chosen as president.[21]
